Portable, Pasuma perform at Lagos church despite uproar [VIDEO]
Despite the controversy surrounding their invitation, the renowned Fuji musician, Alabi Pasuma, and the controversial street-hop artist, Portable, went ahead to perform at a celestial church in Lagos. The church had faced criticism after unveiling the duo as guest artists for its praise night, with some opposing voices, including Celestial Church leader Olatosho Oshoffa, expressing disapproval of their participation.
In response to the backlash, the presiding pastor of the church, Aderemi Dabiri, justified the decision by stating that he invited the secular musicians with the intention of winning souls for Christ.
Despite the criticism, a video surfaced on the internet showing Pasuma and Portable performing at the praise night on Friday. Pasuma was dressed in casual shirt and trousers, while Portable adhered to the church’s dress code by wearing a white garment. The video depicted them passionately performing Pasuma’s popular track, “Zazuu,” with congregants enthusiastically joining in, creating an atmosphere of excitement and shared celebration within the church.

Why you shouldn’t care about what people think of you – Don Jazzy
Music executive Michael Collins Ajereh, known as Don Jazzy, recently offered fans advice on handling critics. He emphasized not being troubled by criticisms once they achieve their goals, noting that critics are indifferent during their struggles.
Don Jazzy explained that paying attention to critics serves as a distraction.
On his X handle on Saturday, he wrote: “Nobody cares about you when you are struggling and grinding. If you worry about what people think once you make it, then you didn’t learn anything during the come-up and will be back to suffering soon.”
“Worrying about what people think during both your grinding phase and your successful phase is a distraction.”

My family distribute electricity to most of Nigeria – Davido
Renowned musician David Adeleke, also known as Davido, recently asserted during an appearance on an American podcast, ‘Business Untitled,’ that his family plays a significant role in Nigeria’s energy sector by operating four power plants. According to him, these power plants make substantial contributions to Nigeria’s electricity supply.
In discussing his family’s business ventures and personal investments, Davido mentioned his brief foray into cryptocurrency due to its popularity in Nigeria. He also highlighted his family’s involvement in the energy sector, emphasizing their ownership of four lucrative power plants that distribute electricity across a considerable portion of Nigeria.
Additionally, Davido disclosed plans to venture into the restaurant business with his wife, who has a passion for culinary arts. However, he reiterated that his primary focus remains on his music career.
While Davido’s family boasts wealth and investments in the energy sector, some observers may dispute his claim that their power plants supply the majority of Nigeria’s energy needs. The Nigerian government owns most of the significant thermal and hydropower plants in the country.
